Regarding the replaced prophetic poem.
After Kurapika informed John of the prophetic poem over the phone, John directly deleted the last three sentences, making it the same as the prophetic poems obtained by other gang leaders.
The situation about the prophetic poem only flashed through John's mind. On the surface, he shrugged and said, "Of course, I am a person who keeps my promises!"
Hearing this, Kurapika's heart couldn't help but beat faster, and at the same time, he stared at John with intense eyes.
He was following John's plan because John used the news about the Phantom Troupe as a bargaining chip. Now that he was about to get the news about the Phantom Troupe, how could he remain calm?
"On September 1st, everyone from the Phantom Troupe will appear in Yorknew City, and their purpose is to seize all the auction items in this underground auction," John said slowly.
If he was not sure before whether the Phantom Troupe would gather in Yorknew City as in the original plot, now he is completely certain.
The reason is that he also got in touch with Hisoka not long ago and obtained accurate information from him.
Kurapika's pupils shrank.
After hearing what John said, under the black contact lenses, Kurapika's eyes instantly turned into fiery red eyes.
"I see, so they will come here specifically to seize the auction items... Indeed, this is the style of the Phantom Troupe."
Kurapika's breathing was obviously rapid, his fists were clenched, and he was whispering through gritted teeth.
Behind John, Steve, Mia, and the Beast, who were watching Kurapika, all had their eyes fixed on him.
"The mind energy has become stronger? Is this the use of 'hard'?"
When Kurapika lost control of his emotions and opened his fiery eyes, the energy flowing around him also increased significantly.
Such changes were immediately noticed by Steve, Mia, and the Beast.
"No wonder John thought so highly of him back then. Even though he didn't know about Nen during the Hunter exam, now he actually has such an impressive aura."
Compared to Mia and the Beast, Steve was even more surprised.
Kurapika's growth rate is absolutely extraordinary.
In more than half a year, not only did he learn Nen, but the manifested energy displayed at this time was also quite astonishing.
If he hadn't known about Kurapika's situation, Steve probably wouldn't have believed that he was a rookie who didn't even know about Nen half a year ago.
Steve narrowed his eyes slightly.
It seems that Kurapika should be the kind of person with outstanding qualifications. If so, he could indeed help in the upcoming hunt for the Phantom Troupe.
"Now you already know the news about the Phantom Troupe, and I think you also know that September 1st is when I plan to hunt the Phantom Troupe. What about your attitude? If you want to cooperate with us, I will need to test your current strength first to ensure that you will not become a burden to us."
John naturally noticed the changes in Kurapika's mental energy, but his expression remained unchanged as he spoke calmly.
He will rely on the original plot he knows, but he will not rely entirely on it.
